“Three Twenty-One Capital Partners (321 Capital) brings a very impressive mix of relevant experience and deal savvy, keen insight and ability to work the transaction details, and excellent personal relationships with their clients and buyers. We bought a company that 321 Capital represented, and our transaction was complex and had many unusual elements. 321 Capital was an excellent advocate and resource for its client the entire way, and after closing as the buyer we liked and respected them even more than we did before the deal. They are a first-class firm, and we’d work with them again in a heartbeat.”
